Finally a Masters Series Event again! ;D ;D The Qualifying Draw is already quite impressive - some small tournament would kill for a line-up like this : (1)Guillermo Canas (ARG) vs Alessio Di Mauro (ITA) (11)Florent Serra (FRA) vs Thomas Fabbiano (ITA) (2)Max Mirnyi (BLR) vs Igor Kunitsyn (RUS) (13)Oscar Hernandez (ESP) vs Alberto Martin (ESP) (3)Kristof Vliegen (BEL) vs Federico Luzzi (ITA) (10)Teimuraz Gabashvili (RUS) vs Janko Tipsarevic (SRB) (4)Ruben Ramirez Hidalgo (ESP) vs Davide Sanguinetti (ITA) (8)Michael Russell (USA) vs Michael Llodra (FRA) (5)Albert Montanes (ESP) vs Victor Hanescu (ROU) (12)Vincent Spadea (USA) vs Andreas Seppi (ITA) (6)Nicolas Massu (CHI) vs Alejandro Falla (COL) (14)Ivo Karlovic (CRO) vs Stefano Galvani (ITA) (7)Juan Martin Del Potro (ARG) vs Fabio Fognini (ITA) (9)Amer Delic (USA) vs Luis Horna (PER) The Main Draw is due out tomorrow and will be published by our honored Admin in the first post of the thread. |

WOW This is a tough qualifying draw...great players, some great first round matches. I honestly think Marat won't suck. He tends to play better against better players...he might lose, but I doubt we'll see the Vliegen episode again. |

But it's true, looking at the names in the Qualies, they are all pretty scary!!! |

If Marat plays Canas, I'm sure he can win! There is no doubt about it! He just have to be confident! Of course, his last few matches have been a disaster but Marat Safin is Marat Safin and we never know what's next! ;D Davai Marat Thxs girls for news!  |
